I look at why HBR devoted an entire issue to forgiveness and why Stanford started the Forgiveness Project. If you don't know how or refuse to forgive, it's like someone hurt you and as a result you choose to punish... yourself! Unforgiveness leads to many physical and mental illnesses and makes you less effective. This week's episode explores what forgiveness really is, how to do it, and how to move on.
Bullet Points:
In the Daily Dose of Growth show notes are the resources mentioned in each episode. The four daily episodes that make up this weekly compilation are:
- Harvard & Stanford Take On the F Word
- Two Steps to Forgiveness
- Oh, That's What's Causing That
- The Steps You Take To Forgive
Episode #724

Do you often feel like a fake? The research reveals that many of us do, even those executives who have reached some significant levels. We feel as though we are really lucky and we hope we are not "discovered" for the insecure person that we really are.
HBR has taken on this subject many times over the years.

Episode #698: “How should I be thinking?” This is a question that you should be asking yourself if you want to live a better life. When you realize that even someone like you could be forgiven, life will become so much better.
Don’t ever blame your past, your trauma, or your circumstances for what you have become because you have the choice to do something about it.

Episode #697: Don’t blame the trauma for how you turned out to be. It is not the trauma that is causing you to be this awful person, but it is the LIE that you have chosen to believe in. You have the power and the choice to live a better life.
Do you experience traumas in the past and that embarrasses you to some degree? We’ve all been there, but guess what? You don’t have to LIE and build a different story over it just because you want to be accepted. Stop lying to yourself!
Wouldn’t it be better to be yourself from the very beginning and if people don’t like you for it, that’s fine. You will find the right people who will love and accept you for who you are and they will respect you more because they know you are not a fake.

Episode #693: Vulnerability takes COURAGE! If you are a leader who always wants to innovate and wants your team to be fully on board, you have to be VULNERABLE around them. And for a team to innovate, people must be willing to disagree, dissent, and to challenge the status quo. As a leader, IT IS YOUR JOB to set the conditions for this kind of INTELLECTUAL BRAVERY.

Episode #691: If there’s one thing I’ve learned about my leadership career is that people avoid loss. Research shows that the fear of losing something is more motivational than the opportunity to be rewarded for something. So if you can either get a reward or you would not lose something. Which one would motivate you more? And guess what it is will motivate you more? It’s gonna be Loss Aversion.

Episode #672: How can you take your brain and get more out of it? Listen to this because I got you covered! Knowledge and productivity are like COMPOUND INTEREST. Scientists say “If you work 10 percent harder every day than the person next to you and you have the same IQ. Soon you will be TWICE as productive as they are.”
You can have a whole bunch of knowledge or a little bit of knowledge. But if you have a little bit of knowledge and A LOT of productivity, you’re going to accomplish far more than other people in that same field that you are.

Episode #671: How do you lead a problem-solving team? This is one problematic area that some organizations struggle with. Do you know why? Because some of them are too busy before a problem is being talked about and their minds are already on something else.
Hey Friends! The first step to leading an effective problem-solving team is to IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM and have CLEAR ROLES on the team. Solutions don’t need to come up right away, you just have to identify the problem, be clear with everyone’s role and that will take you in the right direction.

You are not just going to show up and practice the same way as you always have. You just have to do ONE practice at a time.
This may look easy at first glance, but listen! People are more likely to tire from the mental strain than the physical strain. So it is important for you to toughen up your mind because even when your body says no but your mind knows you can till go on, trust me it will do wonders for your growth!

Time and time again people indicate that they are above average. Hey friends! You have to stop protecting your ego. You need to have more HUMILITY and accept objective feedback in order for you to properly grow as a leader.

Episode #642: I don’t care how many connections you have, because only a few of them know who you are. Quality connections matter! The HIGHER THE QUALITY of your connection is to people, the more those things are going to be true in your life. It doesn’t matter if you’re an introvert because if you care about the people that you’re going to connect with, the better it is for you and your life.

People who have high-quality connections are healthier, they have higher cognitive functioning, they are broader thinkers, they are more resilient, they are more committed to the organization and they know better whom to trust and whom not to trust.

Episode #627: Everybody says they want feedback but when they get it, it is always scary. John Maxwell said, “Feedback is the breakfast of champions!” It takes courage to open yourself up to new information about yourself and learn. It certainly takes courage to become vulnerable and expose your weakness.
When you show vulnerability, especially in public. It takes courage to admit that you need help in some areas. Listen to this, people who say “I need help in this area,” or “Can I ask you a question?” get more respect than those who don’t have the guts to ask the right questions. Do you want to know why? Because leadership, for the most part, is a process of learning. Leaders learned how to become leaders and they are not afraid to ask for help and people will respect them for it.

Episode #623: How do you become more courageous? Simple: take action! If you DO NOT take any risk, you won’t receive any GAIN. Action is the most potent antidote to fear. It breeds confidence and it nurtures courage in a way that nothing else can.
People’s brains are wired to OVERESTIMATE RISK. They exaggerate the consequences and they underestimate the ability to handle it. It’s almost like our brains are risk-averse, our brains want to play it safe. Fear will always drive you to play safe, so start taking action because that’s the only thing that will help you become more courageous.

It is as simple as making a choice to do something rather than to not do something. That’s it! Say YES to the CHALLENGE.
What’s a small decision that you could make today that’s a step in the right direction but it’s going to take a little bit of courage? Whatever it is, do it!

Episode #621: Eleanor Roosevelt once said “You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you stop, and you really stop, and you look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along. You must do the thing that you think you cannot do.”
Courage is actually much more prevalent than we think it is. It’s something that every person has. Courage may be precious but IT IS NOT RARE. So what can we do to bring that courage from the inside out? Courage is not all about being fearless, is all about being able to CONTROL YOUR FEAR.

Failure trips up everyone—let it catapult you to success.
CEOs with failures OWN those mistakes: they are the first to bring them up and tell you what they learned. They don’t retreat to the foxhole, they keep fighting to find out what works best. John Maxwell’s friend says, “I’m never down; I’m either up or I’m getting up!”
